I just instaled it and it opens but won't let me make any new slides or
shows. If I click nw, it just pops up the same window again.
Anyone Know why.
Also, I,m on Vista Beta 2.

Do you see a panel on the right side of your screen labeled "New
Presentation"? There should be a list of possible shows (Blank
Presentation, From Design Template, From AutoContent Wizard, ect).

What window is that?  We can't see your screen from here, so you'll have to be
our eyes.

If you're using 2003 but are used to earlier versions, that might be the
problem.  If the window in question is the "New Presentation" task pane on the
right of your screen, click one of the options under New.

If the window says "Slide layout" at the top, choose one of the slide layout
options.

That could be why.  ;-)
There's a reason why "Bugs" and "Beta" start with the same letter.
